Odd, I'm in Europe to and it says I can't watch because I'm not in the
US, but the player
itself works. (64bit)

"Unable to stream videos" isn't actually what "it's working fine" means.

I've been running 64-bit for years, initially with a 32-bit browser and
plugin, but now since Adobe announced the 64-bit plugin, I've never run
into any issues. Granted, I live in the U.S., and I'm not a heavy flash
user (I don't waste my time with flash games, watching flash videos on
every corner of the Internet, etc), but I've never, ever had a problem
running a 100% 64-bit Debian GNU/Linux operating system for the past
year or so. _ZERO_ issues.

We don't know what's the issue with this site exactly. It looks like a
commercial showstopper not a limitation in flash or it look like it's a
commercial limitation, something I would not consider as flash problem. But
if the guy says it's working in 32bit then it's probably a 64bit flash for
linux issue, for real ... strange things happen all the time.

Huh. I'm jealous. I've been running 64 bit Lenny and Squeeze for the past three years or so. When I moved to the 64 bit flash plugin, it would crash Iceweasel on a regular basis. No watching videos required -- just a flash advertisement on a page. I could restart Iceweasel and go back, maybe get a different flash advertisement from the rotation which wouldn't crash Iceweasel and read the page. I'd say 5% of pages would crash Iceweasel.

But it got to the point where I just moved the plugin out of the way, and live without flash for Iceweasel on amd64. I move it back when my daughter wants to hang out at Club Penguin, which plays nice with my browser.
